'''Storm Chasers''' is a Battle [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' and a Free-for-All minigame in ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'' and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''.


==Gameplay==
==Overview==
Players with baby [[Piranha Plants]] have to chase the rain cloud to feed the Piranha Plants as the rain cloud moves randomly. In the middle of the minigame, some [[Monty Mole]]s pop out of the holes; if a player bumps into one, that player will trip over, stunned. The player who gathers the most rain for the baby Piranha Plant wins.
